- The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) An essential aughts comedy and one of the most confident feature debuts ever, The 40-Year-Old Virgin delivers Apatow's cringe-comedy elements to the big screen intact.
- This Is 40 (2012) This marital anxiety comedy set the tone for much of the director's work to come: personable, actor-centric, and pleasantly meandering.
- Knocked Up (2007) Bad blood between star Katherine Heigl and Apatow eclipsed this pregnancy comedy's merits — a shame because everyone should have benefited from what works beautifully, especially the interplay of the actors.
- Trainwreck (2015) Like The King of Staten Island, this one also has autobiographical roots, in star-writer Amy Schumer's ping-ponging party-girl days.
